I'm thinking that it's pretty old as it's been refinished and has an "older" look about it. I may check it out. For $2,500, it might be a decent practice room grand which would free up one I have as a "floating loaner" Baldwin R that I put in faculty studios or classrooms to move the regular piano to the shop for service. It's supposed to be a practice grand.

Knew of one locally for years that was actually a very good piano. Had that combo clarity, power and sweetness in the treble and smoothness of tenor/bass transition area one associates with more high-end makes. The uprights of that era that I've seen were definitely several cuts above the average as well.

Does anyone know about the Hazelton Brothers piano co? A church here in Lincoln is selling one for $2,500 all refinished, but haven't looked at it yet. Might consider it for a practice room or something. Not sure of the year made, so it could be a Kohler and Campbell or a Samick. I've never seen one.
